The "Stargate" franchise expands to the Pegasus galaxy for the spinoff "Stargate Atlantis" (8-10 p.m. on Sci-Fi). The setup has a Stargate team finding an abandoned base beneath the polar ice cap that turns out to be a one-way door to Pegasus. There, they find what appears to be the lost continent of Atlantis, and humanoids battling life-sucking predators called the Wraith.
